MultiVOIP User Guide Technical Configuration (Analog/BRI)
197
Local configuration is done through a connection between the “Command”
port of the MultiVOIP and the COM port of the computer; the MultiVOIP
configuration program is used.
Remote configuration is done through a connection between the MultiVOIP’s
Ethernet (network) port and a computer connected to the same network. The
computer could be miles or continents away from the MultiVOIP itself. There
are two ways of doing remote configuration and operation of the MultiVOIP
unit: (1) using the MultiVoipManager SNMP program, or (2) using the
MultiVOIP web browser interface program.
MultiVoipManager. MultiVoipManager is an SNMP agent program (Simple
Network Management Protocol) that extends the capabilities of the MultiVOIP
configuration program: MultiVoipManager allows the user to manage any
number of VOIPs on a network, whereas the MultiVOIP configuration
program can manage only the VOIP to which it is directly/locally connected.
The MultiVoipManager can configure multiple VOIPs simultaneously,
whereas the MultiVOIP configuration program can configure only one at a
time.
MultiVoipManager may (but does not need to) reside on the same PC as the
MultiVOIP configuration program. The MultiVoipManager program is on the
MultiVOIP Product CD. Updates, when applicable, may be posted at on the
MultiTech FTP site. To download, go to ftp://ftp.multitech.com/MultiVoip/.
Web Browser Interface. The MultiVOIP web browser GUI gives access to
the same commands and configuration parameters as are available in the
MultiVOIP Windows GUI except for logging functions. When using the web
browser GUI, logging can be done by email (the SMTP option).
